So...I looked at the current ScotflightLibraries v5.01.We immediately found the problem.

The guys from Scotflight have taken the original FS9-SIRP library AB_Buildings.bgl into their library.Scotflight may have extracted the models and saved them back as FSX models.But they did not take the original texture with it.

I have the original FS9-SIRP with the corresponding models in FSX native and P3Dv4 native models converted.I have retained the original Guid.

For the flight simulators only the Guid is crucial!

Now there are two ways to solve the problem.1. Doug turns to Scotflight and asks to remove the SIRP Bgl files from the Scotflight library, as the rights to this are with RTMM.

2. I'm doing an update and change the guid, then the problem should not exist anymore.

A misunderstanding...I meant Scotflight has extracted the models and saved them as FSX models.

Why does not Dieter have the same problems ...Well, every PC and every operating system reacts slightly differently to the flight simulator.This was already at FS9 times and is still the case with the P3Dv4.

Now that it's proofed that Scotflight used the original FS9-SIRP library AB_Buildings.bgl into their Scotfight Library 5.01 I wonder how things will continue.

Will a responsible RTMM person get in contact with one of the Scotfight crew (Iain Gallacher & Iain Murray) about this?

Today's Object Libray Table of "Return to Misty Moorings" contains a clearly visible red marking about the use of the object library? It's said:"""You may confidentially report any violations to "contact@mistymoorings.com"""

Or was that old RTMM SIRP-file just freeware without any copyrights just ror everyone's use? (Which I don't think if you read here:http://www.edtruthan.com/sirp/sirpmanual.htm- at the end of the description you'll find "Legal Stuff"

It's getting more and more strange ...I just visited RTMM Scenery Download page and I happened to see that S.I.R.P. is temporarily not available!Why is that?As far as I understood there was never a problem with SIRP textures! ! !What I read here it was a problem of same object GUID numbers that Scotflight used without permission in "their" AB_Buildings.bgl file but without textures.

I assume if Doug as member of the former "Amigo Team" or any other RTMM Staff member would have given a permission or had the information about it this public discourse could have easily been solved by writing a short note here in the forum that this problem is cut and dried.Nobody had any idea and any knowledge about it and possibly wouldn't have up to now unless BBQSteve reported the problem and Mike found the culprit in the Scotflight Library. All that makes me supposed to think so that a permission was never given.It seems that the original FS9-SIRP library AB_Buildings.bgl has been altered. This can be seen by disassembling/decompiling the bgl with appropriate software. There are no coincidences that GUID numbers are equal just ramdomly.

I don't know if former "Amigo" Ed Turthan gave a permission, I agree. (but I might ask him)
